- ItemReforming procurement law in South Africa(Faculty of Law, Stellenbosch University, 2020) Quinot, GeoThe reform of South African public procurement law has been on the cards for many years. Following years of promises from government leaders and officials about a new procurement law, a draft Public Procurement Bill for South Africa was eventually published for public comment in February 2020. The draft Bill proposes a complete overhaul of South African procurement law by consolidating existing procurement rules into a single statutory regime. It creates new institutional structures and a new dispute resolution process. There are, however, a number of problems with the draft Bill that should be addressed before the draft can proceed on its path to becoming a new overarching procurement statute in South Africa. This contribution introduces a special edition of the African Public Procurement Law Journal focusing on the draft Bill. In subsequent contributions, specific aspects of the draft Bill will be considered in more detail.
